FERLA - a plain knitted (stocking st) dress in DK-weight wool in a comfortable design. Optimal fit has been given by the notches on the front and the slightly shaped
side lines. Raglan-type sleeves. The welt of the dress, the cuffs and the collar have a furrow-textured knitting. Worked flat - but is suitable to work in rounds until
armholes.
Well written pattern with chart for the furrow pattern.
Add on a little twist of a tip colour and the model becomes even more particular. But self-coloured it is also elegant and chic.
